If you would like the Student Immigration Team (Advice) to assist you with submitting your application online, then you should make an appointment to see an Adviser at least one week before your visa expires. If you want to submit the application yourself, then please ensure the following:
- Create an account on the Home Office website to submit your online application
- You will need your passport, BRP card (if applicable), new CAS, national ID card (if applicable), UK National Insurance Number (if applicable), UK Driving License (if applicable), financial documents (if you have not been resident in the UK for the last 12 months), academic qualifications and transcripts as listed on your CAS
- To pay for the Immigration Health Surcharge and Visa Application Fee, you will need a debit or credit card
- Scan and upload your documents during the online application process, otherwise you will have to take them to your appointment if you are required to re-enrol your biometrics and you will be charged for them to be scanned
- Print the Document Check List if you need to attend a biometric enrolment appointment
- If you are required to attend a biometric enrolment appointment, print the appointment confirmation letter with the QR code for the UKVCAS Service Point
- Attend your appointment with your appointment confirmation letter and passport to register your biometrics
- You must wait until you receive your visa decision from the Home Office before you book any travel abroad
- Never travel abroad without first accessing and checking your eVisa
From 1st November 2024, any visa decision made will not have a BRP card issued, instead you will be instructed to create a UKVI account, if you have not already done so, to access your eVisa
